Ömer remembers Yener in the villa grabbing Zehra and saying she is going with her and then shooting at him. Zehra goes in and sits with Yener. Yener again insists that it is Ömer that made her mother go and he must have given her the money. He shouts that she is his and grabs her. The police separate them and she leaves. Outside Ömer wonders why he can't just run up and question her. What is she doing there? He backs up and lets the taxi go and follows the taxi with her inside. Zehra does not want to believe Yener but it makes sense to her and some of Ömer's statements that she remembers. She calls Leyla and decides to go to her dad and ask him about it. Inside his car, Ömer remembers seeing Yener putting a ring on Zehra's hand. He remembers Zehra giving Yener the ten thousand liras. He says to himself "what did you expect?" He wonders why she went to meet him after all that has happened. She remembers her genuine words about signing the contract to save her father's life. Still chasing after her, he thinks maybe there is something else. Maybe it is about her mother.

Yasemin has enjoyed the restaurant they went to with Alper and Funda. Funda lets Alper take her home making an excuse for herself. Koray is picked up by his father's goons. Alev is in a robe at home. Nothing to do. Tyfun keeps calling her. She does not respond. He finally comes to see her. They walk and talk in the yard and then she excuses herself.

Zehra talks with Leyla. They agree to meet at the house. Ömer goes to the office and signs the papers with the lawyer. The lawyer immediately calls Yener's counsel to set up a meeting. Mehtap keeps trying to get info by bringing in coffee and eavesdropping.

Zehra goes to her dad and tells him about the money. He says Sevim had property assets from her uncle. The money had to be from that. Zehra wonders why she did not use it when they were so much in need of it for his hospital bills. Salim says Sevim was like that. Zehra leaves the money with Salim. Ayşe has not been able to talk to Ömer and calls Zehra all worried. Zehra says she will find him and let her know. She goes to the office to see him. He is not there. He won't answer his phone either. Demir says he probably wanted to be alone. This gives Zehra an idea.

Leyla goes to the house and Zehra is not there. Tyfun meets Leyla there. Ayşe and Cevriye think they are a good match. Since Ömer and Zehra don't come, they decide to leave. Tyfun ends up taking Leyla home.

Ömer is at the waterfront, remembering Zehra's arm on his, in bed. He remembers her taking care of him at the villa. "What does she have to do with that man?" He is annoyed. Zehra arrives at the waterfront. He wonders how come she is there. She says he had said he would go there when he was upset. He acts distant. She tries to take him home and says Ayşe is worried for him. They finally go home together.

They arrive home. Ayşe is happy to see him and hugs him and gets him to include Zehra in the hug. She then notes a tension and wonders if they have fought because of her. She does not pursue it though and smiles saying it was a sweet fight, I think!!

At the office Demir tries sending poetry to Leyla and again goes too far. In the bedroom Ömer sits with his coat. He is sulking. Zehra says is there any clue about the person bothering them. He says not. Then he says is there anything you want to tell me, hoping she would tell him something. She says no. He pauses but then leaves. Zehra calls Leyla and says the money was her mom's and Ömer has nothing to do with it. In the study, Ömer is upset wondering why she did not tell him about meeting Yener. Then he thinks perhaps she actually loves him. It saddens him. At night, they have the twin beds that can be pushed together to look like a double. Zehra says she is happy about it and now she can sleep well. He says I did it for myself. He is cold and sarcastic but sweet.

Yasemin tries to get information from her dad about Koray but he says Koray is not coming for a couple of days. Yasemin wonders what's going on with Koray. The lawyer goes to Yener with the proposal. Yener thinks it is Zehra's way of showing him that she cares. He agrees. He tells the lawyer he needs to make a call. In the morning Ömer gets up. Zehra's phone is ringing. She is not there. Ömer gets out of bed and picks up the phone and answers it. Yener's voice comes out saying "Hello! Zehra!" Ömer's face changes.

Ömer arrives. He is dressed in his tuxedo. He sits to talk to Tyfun and asks Zehra to finish getting ready so they are not late. Tyfun tells him that the stabbed guy has not revealed anything but the missing woman is probably where the case can be solved but there is no sign of her. He asks if Ömer knows anything about her; he says no.

In the room Zehra thinks about what Tyfun said but quickly turns to her more immediate concern which is the presence of media at the party. Ömer comes in and she says I can't go because I am sick. Ömer is surprised and wonders what's going on. He is about to leave but returns and says I am going to sit here (on the bed) until you tell me what's going on. She says you'll be late. He says I won't go until you tell me. Zehra tells him she is concerned about the media and her family seeing a photo of her somewhere. He says he has thought about it and they will not be going in through the main door and inside there will be no media representatives. She says still there is a chance of someone taking their photo. He calls Demir and tells him they are not going and he should handle the event. Zehra tries to convince him to go on his own but he refuses. Her phone rings and she does not answer. He asks if she does not answer because he is there. She says it has nothing to do with him. She then hints at how he has hidden things from him regarding what Tyfun was here for. He says is this why we did not go to the party? You were upset about your mother and I just did not want to upset any further at the time. She softens and tells him she has already told him the reason or not wanting to go. He is about to leave when he turns around and says by the way it is you who are a master at hiding things! Zehra wonders what he is referring to. She wants to go after him but lets go thinking it's no use arguing with him.

Alev gets ready to go thinking she needs to convince Ömer at the party to take her back in the Company.

Ömer and Zehra are alone at home as everyone has gone to the party. The house is dark and Zehra wants to go to the kitchen to eat because she is hungry. She is afraid of the big dark house and did not realize that everyone even Hediye will be going to the party. Ömer comes out of the study and startles her. She says if he is hungry. He says no. He remembers how she was afraid of the dark in the past on the boat and at the villa. She does not like to let on that she is afraid so he has fun with her. He watches her with a smile. She finally gets to the kitchen and makes a sandwich for herself. Ömer comes and watches her. She is startled again. He gets a glass of water. She eats and says she could not have slept had she not eaten something. Ömer takes the second half of the Sandwich. She says you were not hungry; what happened. He says I stood guard for you so I got hungry. She objects to him insinuating that she is scared. She eats and talks and Ömer enjoys watching her. She makes more sandwiches. She eats and says sometimes she gets hungry at night but does not get up here because she does not want to bother others. Ömer says she should get food whenever she wants.

Koray is upset and wonders why Alper is going out with Yasemin knowing Koray's feelings toward her.

In the bedroom Zehra is concerned about what they will tell others about her not going. She is surprised that Ömer is not angry with her for missing the party. The phone rings. Demir tells him that Alev wants to return to work and he thinks it's a good idea. Ömer says I know but let's think about it first. Zehra is getting in bed; she says I think it is good for her to return to work. She has always worked and she can't sit at home. After all she is also part of Ömer's family so he should be considerate. Ömer is surprised that she is so concerned for Alev. They sleep. In the morning, Leyla calls. Zehra is surprised. Leyla says she is on her way as Ayşe has invited her for breakfast. She gets up and is worried about facing others having missed the party. Ömer says we will say your pressure dropped. Zehra says they'll think I was too excited. He says it would make it more believable. She is not happy with it but agrees. Leyla arrives at the house. Demir calls to go to breakfast with her. She says she has work and if they can do it another time. At the door she meets up with Tyfun who is also invited for breakfast. Ayşe feels fate is bringing them together.

Salim goes to the workshop and realizes Koray has slept there all night. Koray says he is looking for a place. Salim is concerned for him.

At the table Cevriye talks about how everything was so well done at the party. Ayşe and Nihat gave speeches because Ömer was not there. Ömer says Zehra was not well. Alev says what they expected; Zehra did not invite them to her wedding either. Cevriye says it has nothing to do with Zehra. Ömer is jealous of her beautiful wife and does not want to share her with others. Be jealous; you have every right to be, Cevriye encourages him. Ömer is uncomfortable. Demir comes and sees Leyla there. Ömer says you had said you have another appointment and were not coming. Demir responds that his date was canceled looking meaningfully at Leyla. Demir sits for breakfast. He notices Tyfun acting somewhat intimate to Leyla and does not like it. Ömer then announces to everybody that Alev is returning to work at the Company and that she will be working with Nihat. Alev thanks Ömer. Ömer says thank Zehra, she suggested it. Alev is miffed both about Zehra and Nihat.

In the living room Demir, Ömer and Tyfun talk. Tyfun leaves. Ömer and Demir join Leyla and Zehra. Zehra's phone rings and she gets up to go to the side. Ömer thinks it might be Yener and overreacts. He follows her and they grapple with the phone. Ömer says you should not bring it in the living room. Leyla and Demir try to calm them down. Zehra leaves and Ömer goes into his study. Leyla asks Demir what's going on. Demir says Ömer thinks Zehra is meeting with Yener. Leyla goes into the study. Zehra is not there. She asks to talk with Ömer. She tells him that Zehra does not care for Yener and has tried to keep her own family and his family safe from him. She then lets him listen to the recording of Yener threatening Zehra and telling her that she has to be his and Zehra challenging it. Ömer listens to it thoughtfully and asks why she did not give it to him earlier. Leyla says she felt you would not believe and think it was another game. She also tells him that Zehra met Yener to get info about her mom. Leyla leaves.

Ömer wants to go out but hears Zehra talking to Leyla in the corridor all fed up with the pretenses saying it is all like a nightmare.

Mehtap tells Betton that Zehra did not come and neither did Ömer. She is perplexed by the whole affair and wonders what's going on. They call her from the office and say they heard Zehra was not well and that is why they did not come. Leyla and Demir are about to leave together when Ömer asks Demir to go to his study about some business so Leyla ends up going home with Tyfun. Demir is very upset but holds back and goes with Ömer. Ömer tells Demir that he really needs to tell Zehra about her mom but still does not know how.

Leyla gets a file from home and then Tyfun takes her to the office. Salim takes Koray home for dinner. Yasemin acts cold. In the bedroom Ömer asks Zehra why she did not let him hear the recording earlier. She says he would not believe her. He says she has shown that she does not know him. He says I know that every time we hide something form each other something bad happens to us. I don't want that to happen. He then assures her that she won't have to face him again. He says Yener was behind the photo and all the pranks. . In the morning Ömer wakes up and looks at her in bed. She gets up too. Ömer says good morning without moving. She responds. She gets up and goes to the bathroom. Ömer gets a call and while he is answering, Zehra hears him say where can the woman be. Zehra's ears perk up but she does not mention it. He leaves. Hediye comes in and brings a paper that was found in Ömer's clothes before laundry. Zehra looks at it. It is a large withdrawal made on the day her mother disappeared. She again begins to wonder if Ömer sent her mother away.
